how to train your dragon (dean deblois, chris sanders)

maybe i just wasn't in the mood for it, but i wasn't impressed at all. there were several things that really annoyed me: i found the dragons incredibly cheesy ('toothless' was better, but still...); i couldn't understand why the adult vikings spoke with a scottish accent and the children had an american one; and, the worst bit, kids speak like adults, and I HATE THAT. oh, and the emo girl character was appalling. still, as a whole it's ok, but very far from amazing. nonetheless, i have to admit i couldn't help but feeling rather emotional after the final fight scene.
